Exhibit Program at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 Opens
“Not everyone needs a keynote slot to make noise at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026. Sometimes the best way to meet investors, customers, and partners is by exhibiting directly on the Expo Hall floor.” – TechCrunch, 06 Aug 2026
TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 will run from October 13–15 at San Francisco’s Moscone West. While speaking slots remain limited, the event’s Exhibit Program offers startups a low‑lift, high‑visibility alternative. For $12,500, a startup can secure a table on the Expo Hall floor and join a crowd of fellow exhibitors.
What’s on Offer
Table space in the Expo Hall for the full three‑day conference
Direct access to investors, potential customers, and partners walking the floor
Inclusion in the official exhibitor roster that appears in Disrupt’s promotional materials
The program is still open for applications, giving early‑stage companies a chance to showcase their product or service alongside larger, more established participants.
Why It Matters
Cost‑effective exposure: At a single price point, a startup gains a physical presence at one of the year’s most visible tech gatherings, without the preparation required for a keynote.
Network acceleration: The expo floor is a concentrated hub where venture capitalists, corporate buyers, and media converge, shortening the path from introduction to follow‑up.
Brand credibility: Being listed as a Disrupt exhibitor signals market traction and can help attract downstream media coverage.
Who Should Consider
Seed‑stage and Series‑A startups seeking a foothold in the U.S. market
B2B SaaS and hardware teams that benefit from live demos or product interaction
Founders who lack speaking slots but want to tap into Disrupt’s investor pipeline
What to Watch Next
Application deadline: Prospective exhibitors should monitor the Disrupt website for the final submission date.
Attendee composition: The mix of investors and corporate partners attending Disrupt 2026 will shape the networking opportunities available on the expo floor.
